Research Notes:
Constable of Scotland [Ref: DNB v39p169]

of the same family as Hugh de MORVILLE (d.1204), murderer of Thomas Beckett, but true relationship unknown [Ref: DNB v39p169]

G.W.S. Barrow, _The Kingdom of the Scots_ (London, 1973), pp. 323-4: "Morville is from Morville, a few kilometres south-west of Brix, and the Morvilles were prominent tenants on the Honour of Huntingdon. The family's main stem were vassals of the Norman Honour of Vernon, which had its _caput_ at Nehou a few miles further south. The closeness of the Scottish Morvilles to the Norman and Wessex lines of the family is shown by the fact that Morville charters in Scotland were witnessed by Alexander de Nehou, Richard de Nehou, and William de Nehou." [Ref: Kathleen Much SGM 1/3/1996]

D.G. Manuel, _Dryburgh Abbey_ (Edinburgh, 1922), p. 47: quotes Chalmers, _Caledonia_ iv, ch. 1, p. 503: "Hugh de Morville came from Burg in Cumberland. . . . [He] became Constable of Scotland. . . . He was the original founder of the monastery of Dryburgh, and died in 1162. By Beatrice de Bello Campo, his wife, he left Richard de Morville, who . . . became the principal minister of William the Lion." Hugh had "assumed the canonical robe of the monks of Dryburgh." [Ref: Kathleen Much SGM 1/3/1996]

1116: first appears, as a witness to the "inquisitio Davidis" [Ref: DNB v39p169]

1118/29: tenant of the honour of Huntingdon [Ref: Keats-Rohan DD p602]

1140-62: Constable of Scotland [Ref: Keats-Rohan DD p602]

1140: founded Kilwinning Abbey [Ref: DNB v39p169]

founder of the abbeys of Kilwinning and Dryburgh [Ref: Keats-Rohan DD p602]

1150: founded Dryburgh Abbey [Ref: DNB v39p169]

became a monk at Dryburgh [Ref: Kathleen Much SGM 1/3/1996]

died as canon of Dryburgh [Ref: Keats-Rohan DD p602]
